Old enough to read and type, young enough to be free of exam pressure. The CBSE and ICSE Class 4 computer books introduce coding gently — we take that starter and turn it into real, finished projects. 01 / Syllabus ### CBSE/ICSE Class 4 Computer covers Scratch Most Class 4 computer textbooks have an early Scratch chapter. Our curriculum covers everything in that chapter and goes three levels deeper — so school tests feel trivial. 02 / Typing ### Keyboard fluency is enough By Class 4, most children can type short sentences. That's enough for 3 to 5 line Python programs. We pair blocks and text without pressure. 03 / Time ### No board pressure yet Class 4 is still in the deep curiosity zone. The year is long, homework is light, and there is room to learn something hard slowly and enjoyably. Projects, not lectures ## Six projects your Class 4 student actually finishes. The same six projects every Class 4 student of ours ships. Not ideas, not demos — finished, saved, shown-to-family work. Game ### Maze Chase in Scratch Arrow keys, a maze, a monster. First real game they can show friends. keyscollisionsGame ### Apple Catcher Score counter, lives, levels — classic arcade pattern. scoreloopsPython ### Joke Generator Three-line Python program that picks a random joke. First text-code win. randomprintAI ### Teachable Pet Train an image model, hook it to a Scratch cat that reacts. AImodelWeb ### Favourite Things Page A small HTML page about themselves — hosted online, shareable. htmllinksCreate ### Animated Greeting Card A birthday card with music, confetti and a name. Sent to a cousin. animationsoundThe curriculum path ## Four stages across a school year. We align to the school calendar — lighter around mid-terms, steady otherwise. This is what most Class 4 students walk through. Term 1 · Warm-up ### Scratch comfort Sprites, events, motion — short silly projects. The goal is "I enjoy coding class" more than any specific skill. - sprites - events - fun Term 1 · Games ### First finished games Maze chase, apple catcher. Computational thinking quietly moves in through loops and score. - loops - score - lives Term 2 · First Python ### Three-line programs Python enters with jokes, tip calculators, dice rollers. Typing is the new skill — blocks stay too. - print - input - random Term 2 · Web or AI ### Pick a direction Either an HTML personal page or an AI Teachable Machine project. Most Class 4 students do both eventually. - html - AI - deploy Two formats, same 1 hour live class ## Pick the class format that fits your child. Same curriculum. Same teachers. Same recordings. The difference is whether your child learns best with one teacher's full attention, or alongside 4 to 6 classmates at their level. Option A ### Live 1-on-1 Online Class One teacher, one learner, the full 1 hour. The teacher adapts pace in real time — slowing down on tricky concepts, speeding up where your child is already fluent. Best for focused learners, specific exam prep, or fastest progress. - 1 teacher, 1 student, 1 hour per session - Pace fully adjusted to your child - Focused help on school projects and exams - Flexible timing — you pick the slots - Every class recorded and shared with parents **₹2,499**/ month · 8 sessionsOption B ### Live Small-Group Online Class 4 to 6 students at a similar level, one teacher, 1 hour per session. Learners move faster when they see peers solve problems in different ways. Supportive, never pressured. Best if your child enjoys learning with others. - Small groups of 4 to 6 similar-level learners - 1 hour live session, 2 sessions per week - Peer project reviews — students present to each other - Fixed schedule, same classmates each week - Class recording and parent progress report **₹1,499**/ month · 8 sessionsLevel comparison ## Class 3 vs 4 vs 5 — what actually changes. If your child is on a boundary, here is the plain difference. Each row is a real classroom shift. | What to expect | Class 3 | Class 4 (this page) | [Class 5](/coding-for-class-5) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | **Main tool** | Scratch Jr | Scratch + early Python | Scratch + Python + HTML | | **Typing** | Short words | Short sentences | Full sentences | | **Project length** | 1 session | 1 to 2 sessions | 2 to 3 sessions | | **Python** | Not yet | 3-line programs | Small programs | | **AI** | Story only | Teachable Machine | First classifier | | **Session** | 1 hour | 1 hour | 1 hour | Words from parents and students ## Class 4 parents — their own words. Three recent reviews from Class 4 families. Privacy-shortened. My daughter is Class 4 ICSE. Her school computer teacher thinks she's advanced — she built a maze game that actually has a monster. The small group format suits her; she likes showing her work to classmates. CChitra R.Parent · Bengaluru · Group We tried a self-paced coding app for a year — nothing stuck. One live 1-on-1 class a week and now my son asks about loops at dinner. The teacher is patient and specific. IIrfan M.Parent · Delhi · 1-on-1 The teacher shares a weekend voice note. Small thing but makes parents feel informed. My Class 4 daughter has built 4 games already. She shows them to grandparents on WhatsApp. LLata V.Parent · Chennai · GroupCommon questions from parents ## Before you book the demo — answered honestly. Short, plain answers. If your question isn't here, tap the callback button at the top and a human will get back to you the same day. Is Class 4 too early for coding?Not at all. Class 4 students can read short paragraphs, follow instructions and love making things. That's exactly what Scratch asks for. Real Python, gently, comes mid-year.Do you cover what the school computer book teaches?Yes and more. The Class 4 school book is typically an intro to Scratch — we cover that deeply and add real projects school doesn't have time for.How often per week?Two 1-hour sessions a week is standard. You can choose weekends if weekdays are tight with school.1-on-1 or small group for Class 4?Small group works for most. 1-on-1 is better for very shy or very advanced learners. The free demo helps you decide.What equipment is needed?Any laptop or desktop from the last 5 years. Stable internet, headphones, webcam. Tablets do not work well for coding — a real keyboard matters.Is this fun or like school?Fun. Most Class 4 students describe it as their favourite class. The projects always end with something they can show off.Will this help with Class 5 school computer subject?Strongly. By the end of Class 4 with us, most students are ahead of Class 6 school computer syllabus.Is there a free demo?Yes. One full 1 hour live class with a real teacher. No card. Refund on unused portion within 2 weeks if needed.Book a free 1 hour demo class ### Try one session. Decide after. Fill the form. Our counsellor calls you within 3 hours, understands your child's pace, and schedules a real demo with a real teacher. No card, no commitment. ### Related pages [Higher Coding for Class 5](/coding-for-class-5)[Higher Coding for Class 6](/coding-for-class-6)[Age Coding for 9 Year Olds](/coding-for-9-year-olds)[Age Coding for 10 Year Olds](/coding-for-10-year-olds)[Course Python & AI for Kids](/python-and-ai-classes-for-kids-teens)[Special Coding for Girls](/coding-classes-for-girls)[Compare Best Online Classes](/best-coding-classes-online)[Camp Summer Coding Camp](/summer-coding-camp-kids) ### Coding classes near your city [Delhi](/best-coding-class-in-delhi)[Mumbai](/best-coding-class-in-mumbai)[Bengaluru](/best-coding-class-in-bengaluru)[Hyderabad](/best-coding-class-in-hyderabad)[Chennai](/best-coding-class-in-chennai)[Pune](/best-coding-class-in-pune)[Kolkata](/best-coding-class-in-kolkata)[Ahmedabad](/best-coding-class-in-ahmedabad) --- *Canonical: https://learn.modernagecoders.com/coding-for-class-4*
